My camera has always struggled to take decent photos of Rock Pipits but managed to snap this one contemplating life yesterday. #BirdsSeenIn2026 #birds @rspbscotland.bsky.social @rspb.bsky.social 🪶

Curlew in flight

Took my best ever photo of a Curlew in flight today. Much happy 😊

Curlew feeding

This Curlew at Port Seton today flew right across the beach and rocks so gracefully just so it could face plant its beak in the sand🙄 #BirdsSeenIn2025 #birds @rspbscotland.bsky.social @rspb.bsky.social 🪶

Went out for a cycle yesterday for exercise, sea air and to take some photos of birdies at Port Seton. Nice to see the Wigeon back again. #BirdsSeenIn2025 #birds @rspbscotland.bsky.social @rspb.bsky.social 🪶

First saw them live in 1979, still seeing them live in 2025

The MG Midget was at the peak of its pre-Federal bumper desirability at the time of this early-'70s British brochure. The 1275cc roadster appeared on the cover at a pleasing trackside setting, with an eclectic selection of racing vehicles of the era. #weirdcarbs

Got even closer to the very unafraid Water of Leith Heron today, never been so close to one.

The Water of Leith has a remarkably tame young Heron in residence. Never managed to get within 50 yards off a Heron without it flying away

This one was having a feast! I thought a Merganser was just the american term for a Goosander? May need a google!

thank you

Finally got a decent shot of female Goosander diving + catching a fish in among sunken tree branches around the piers of Sandport Bridge on the Water of Leith today. She was catching every 2nd dive. Check out those feet keeping her under! #birds 🪶🐦 #leith @rspb.bsky.social @rspbscotland.bsky.social

Ha ha that made me laugh thank you

Not sure why but said “watchers”when I typed “feathers”!

Heron standing in a puddle

Got a decent shot of one of the local Herons at Cockenzie harbour at low tide the other day. Standing there with his tail watchers just in the water.

The Boomtown Rats sounding as good as ever last night at Fringe by the Sea. What a show what a crowd, a brilliant night.

Snoopy cartoon and a Capri, what’s not to like ?

Two hotwheels cars

Aldi and HotWheels conspired to make me buy these . #HotWheels #SendHelp

Amazing skies looking over to Fife tonight 😶 #sunset #scotland

Uggh I want one

Not had a “save” for a while. This wee thing made it through the night. A 3am alarm call from Stevie. She didn’t want me to get this one but after some stern words (from Stevie) she let me have it. #cats #mice
